The hotel is a short walk from the ferry dock in what is considered downtown, although it’s tucked away from the hustle and bustle. There’s a small soaking pool in the courtyard and tranquil greenery, in addition to a spectacular rooftop patio overlooking the Caribbean Sea. It’s dreamy!

While this does not include flights, I am happy to assist you in finding the best deal!

ABOUT YOUR GUIDE:Rachel is a musician, photographer, and travel writer based in east Austin, TX. She has been traveling the world with her music and cameras since 2002 and wants to share her discoveries with you. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Human Development she worked at the Texas State School for the Blind and Visually Impaired for several years. Her spirit thrives on learning about other cultures and different ways of communication. She started booking tours overseas for her band in 2009 and writing about her experiences, which eventually turned into a travel blog.

After visiting Isla Mujeres repeatedly for several years, she was inspired to take conversational Spanish courses and received a level three certificate. Of course without practice, skills become rusty, so she travels back to México as often as her frequent flyer miles will allow. When visiting her favorite establishments, she enjoys brushing up on her Spanish skills with the friendly locals, some of whom don’t speak English.

Watching the sun rise over the Caribbean Sea and seeing it set from the perfect spot on Playa Norte are two of her favorite experiences on this planet. Throw in a tucked away restaurant with perfect mojitos, musical performances, and plantains, as well as daily fresh squeezed juice and coconut water…total bliss.

She’s been exploring the Méxican island of Isla Mujeres for more than five years now, visiting as a solo traveler and with fellow cosmic souls.

She lives with her husband Carlos and her cats Frida, Coco, and Gram.

Texas musician and photographer Rachel Staggs has been traveling to perform, create, and record music most of her life. Best known for her work in the band Experimental Aircraft, Rachel now makes lo-fi psychedelic indie pop with her husband in the band All in the Golden Afternoon, and solo as Rachel Goldstar.
